In this session we looked at the Select Similar tool, Reshaping Walls, Custom Selection command, adding an object to a window symbol to fill in the walls on some plans, Section Viewports, using the Clip Cube to create a Section Viewport, and creating a Detail Viewport.
It doesn’t matter if you are creating architecture, landscaping, set design or 3D modelling, drawing walls is important. The purpose of this manual is to cover all of the major techniques of drawing, editing, and managing walls. You might think that drawing walls requires nothing more than a couple of…
